Lost Caves of St. Louis

Lost Caves of St. Louis by Rother, Charlotte; Rother, Hubert. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780963144874.

Deep beneath the streets and buildings of St. Louis lie forgotten caves that once harbored native Americans, mushroom growers, beer makers, even a group of turn-of-the-century "tramps." In the early 1960s, brewery worker Hubert Rother and his wife Charlotte explored many of the caves before they were sealed. Combining personal recollections and historical research, Lost Caves of St. Louis provides a fascinating mussing chapter in the citys history.
